Pentaho Announces On-Demand BI; Issues 72-Hour Challenge

Tuesday, June 8, 2010

Pentaho Corporation, the open source business intelligence (BI) leader, today announced its secure, flexible On-Demand BI Suite Subscription that removes critical barriers to BI adoption by giving the customer complete control over how the solution is deployed and managed—by Pentaho, by the customer, or by both. In addition, Pentaho announced the availability of an on-demand evaluation environment, allowing enterprises to easily test drive the Pentaho BI Suite with their own data without requiring any of their own hardware and personnel assets. To launch the new service, Pentaho Services is offering the 72-Hour Challenge where businesses provide Pentaho with their own data and Pentaho will have a full evaluation project up and running within 72 hours including key performance indicators and relevant dashboards. The solution will then remain online for three weeks during which time the customer can fully explore and expand the solution at their convenience.
